Default Re: Martial Arts

Remember that you should be able to sit in (even if just to watch) on a class for free to get a feel for it. Try out a couple different ones before you make a decision. I learned a ton in just four months of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but stuck with capoeira for years becuse I loved it so much more, even though it was definitely more art than martial. In then end you have to enjoy it or you won't stick with it. Of course, if you have bad knees (like me) then that should rule out certain styles. I can't do capoeira now, but I do enjoy being able to walk.
